Parity error indicates bad memory. Parity checks compare the memory read with what was writen.

What is called if the number of bits is not an odd number for odd parity or an even number for even parity?

That's called a "parity violation", which indicates a bit error in the byte. That's the whole purpose of parity ... detecting bit errors, although in order to do it, you have to significantly increase the data load by adding an extra bit to every 7 or 8 bits in the end-user's business traffic.


What do you mean by single bit error correction?

A special system of multiple parity bits (e.g. Hamming parity) that allows not only error detection but limited error correction.Ordinary single bit parity can detect reliably single bit errors.Hamming parity can correct single bit errors and detect reliably double bit errors.
